The Walkway Over the Hudson is the longest elevated pedestrian bridge in the world. Originally the Poughkeepsie-Highland Railroad Bridge, it was rebuilt as the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park and re-opened in October of 2009. Since then, the Walkway has provided a one-of-a-kind way to experience the Hudson Valley!
